5 ways to stay happy and healthy during Diwali and beyond
1. Embrace mindfulness in all aspects of life
Mindfulness is a great way to improve your mood, reduce stress levels and enjoy the things in life more. Whether it is eating mindfully to savor each bite or focusing intently on work tasks with clear thoughts while producing excellent results, practicing mindfulness can benefit every moment of our lives. This Diwali, why not pick up this healthy habit?
2. Improved sleep habits
One of the other healthy habits to consider is improving your sleep habits. From turning off electronics before bedtime to avoiding caffeine late in the day, there are different ways for experiencing a better quality of sleep every night. By prioritizing restful sleep during Diwali, can help ensure to be well-rested and energized for all the exciting events ahead.
3. Connecting with loved ones more often
This is a habit worth picking up. Try to strengthen the relationships with those around you, friends, family members, coworkers, etc. Rather than just sending quick text messages or making brief phone calls between obligations, set aside some dedicated time each week to connect meaningfully with these important people in your life. Building these deeper connections will bring you joy now and help you feel supported during difficult times.
4. Gratitude journal
Often overlooked but hugely beneficial, gratitude journaling is an excellent habit to incorporate during Diwali and beyond. Simply taking time each day to write down what you are thankful for has been shown to increase happiness, reduce stress, and promote greater well-being overall. So, this is one of the ways to become more mindful or find joy throughout the festival season.
5. Exercise regularly with a healthy diet
Exercise has been shown to have incredible benefits for both physical health and mental well-being. So, set aside some time each day for physical activity – even if it’s just a quick walk or yoga session – and watch the body and mind feel stronger and more energized. Also, make sure to eat nutritious foods which will help to give an energy boost.
